I seem to recall there was a lovely little Duttons pub nr the old Readmans store called The Skew Bridge Inn.There was also the Smyths Arms quite near to the Skew.Nobody has mentioned these pubs . I think they both went the way of quite a lot of old boozers when the Ingram Distributor Rd was constructed.

The Skew Bridge has been mentioned before - I posted it on the 'Leeds Lost Pubs' thread - its on page 15 about two-thirds of the way down!!! The Smyth's Arms ( and also the Smith's Arms!!!) have been mentioned - the Smyth's has its own thread;http://www.secretleeds.co.uk/forum/Mess ... tMessage=0
there are 10 types of people in the world. Those that understand ternary, those that don't and those that think this a joke about the binary system.

Young 'uns that have no interest in the history of the place they grew up in....disgraceful.
